Compare and learn. Quiet/loud, over/under, day/night, and many more. Katie Wilson's lovable illustrations teach little ones a variety of common and not so common opposites in this creative board book from the Montessori inspired Discovery Concepts early learning collection. One-of-a-kind colorful illustrations, sturdy board pages, and no moveable parts make this a unique addition to an early learning collection. About the Discovery Concepts series: Discovery Concepts books celebrate Montessori’s curious discovery approach to learning. Maria Montessori believed “the hand is the chief teacher of the brain,” encouraging students to learn by touch and created specially designed materials such as sandpaper letters to support this method. Inspired by her teachings, each book in the Discovery Concepts board book collection uses tactile enhancements to engage young children in discovering the topic at hand. Beyond the tactile elements each title is designed to capture a child’s imagination and curiosity as they learn.

Saber Form is the first weapons form taught in traditional Yang Style Tai Chi, for several reasons. It's simple to learn, the basic movements are the same as the move advanced and complex Sword Forms, and the concepts are similar to those of all weapons forms. In a light-hearted manner, this book teaches the basics of a fun and easy Saber Partner Form. Although there are solo practice Saber Forms, this Partner Form is short and easy to learn. There are only 9 movements per side plus a transition movement to easily shift from A side to B side or vice versa. The transitions allow the Tai Chi player to use this form as a longer solo form as well as to enjoy it in play with a partner. Unlike other "how-to" Tai chi books with grainy black and white photos, Stickman figures clearly illustrate each step of the movements. The accompanying text descriptions are clear, complete, and concise. Introductory to the instructions for the form are important details about the parts of the Saber and their purpose, the three Zones of Attack, and the necessary role of the left hand during Saber play. The Kindle format lets you take this instructional ebook with you as you practice at home, in a studio, in a park, at the beach, or anywhere in your Kindle, iPhone, or smartphone.IMPORTANT NOTE:It is important to note here that optimally you should learn any Form of Tai Chi with a teacher. Books and DVDs are wonderful as support for learning Tai Chi forms from an instructor, but they are not a substitute for live classes and workshops with a teacher. This ebook was created as a very basic introduction to Tai Chi and to support you with your learning during an on-going, in-person class taught by a qualified and knowledgeable Tai Chi Master.There are many reasons why attending a live class is optimum, the most important of which is that an instructor can spot how you may be incorrectly performing a movement. It's far easier and much wiser to learn the movements correctly the first time than to learn the movements incorrectly and then spend additional time re-training your body to do them correctly.
